Happens every year. Just like the headless body someone finds up in the Superstition mountains. Stay away from the Lost Dutchman Gold Mine y'all!!!

So, how do they know he's dead?

His wife had been walking in front of him and didn't see him fall.

There's a whole book on strange deaths in the canyon, some really wild stories....

So who shoved him? A ghost or his wife?

She didn't see him fall.....

She probably didn't hear him yelling on the way down, either. That makes sense, since she was hearing the loud, reverberating CHA-CHING!!! of the insurance money ringing in her ears as she gave him a little nudge.....allegedly.

I was there on Monday and didn't see any SAR efforts. I did see a lot of people leaning over the railings and acting stupid though.

And if you wonder about the sweatshirt...it was 98 in Chandler and 54 at the Rim!

I was just there last month with my small children. I noticed the gaps in the fencing (out on the viewing areas) were large enough for my 3 year old to slip through. Scary.
